Display object in just a certain viewport
- by PSilo
Hi I got 4 viewports and one large that I can switch between now I got an object namely the camera and the cameras target position that I show with rendering a sphere at those locations. I want to show the cameras position in 3 of my viewports but not in the last which is the camera display but at the moment I got an all or nothing scenario.
void display(int what)
{
if(what==5){
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glLoadIdentity();
camControll();}
if(what==1){
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glLoadIdentity();
gluLookAt(75,15,-5,0,5,-5,0,1,0);}
if(what==2){
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glLoadIdentity();
gluLookAt(0,110,0,0,0,0,1,0,0);}
if(what==3){
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glLoadIdentity();
gluPerspective(45.0f, float(320) / float(240), 0.1f, 100.0f);
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glLoadIdentity();
camControll();}
if(what==4){
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glLoadIdentity();
gluLookAt(185,75,25,0,28,0,0,1,0);}
//glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
//glLoadIdentity();
////gluLookAt(cos(shared.time) * shared.distance, 10, sin(shared.time) * shared.distance, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0);
////ca.orbitYaw(0.05);
//ca.lookAt();
glClearColor(0, 0, 0, 1);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT|GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);
drawScene(); // scene that all views should render
drawCamera(); / camera position that only certain views should render
glutSwapBuffers();
}
I'm thinking that perhaps I could do one sweep for first the 3 viewports and then call glutSwapBuffers() and then do the other viewport without the camera position but some stuttering I previously had was traced to glutSwapBuffers() being called for each viewport so I guess there has to be another way only that I cant figure it out.
